THE ACADEMY FOR THE MODERN RIGHT HAND WOMAN
We train ambitious women into exceptional executive assistants, then match them with the founders who can't run a day without one. The career on one side. The right hire on the other. We're where they meet.
Today's best assistants are right hand operators, not support staff. They run the tools a modern business lives in, automate what can be automated and anticipate instead of react. That's exactly what we train people to become.
I started my first PA role at 17, before I had any idea it could be a real career rather than a stepping stone. Over the next few years I worked closely with founders and creators, and the parts of the job that mattered most were never the ones on the description. It was reading what someone needed before they said it, keeping things steady when everything was moving, and being trusted with what counted. It took me years to learn all of that on my own, mostly by getting it wrong first. I always wished someone had been there to show me how.
The Executive Woman exists to close a gap I kept seeing: founders who needed that calibre of support and couldn't find it, and on-the-ball, ambitious women who had no idea this career existed. I train women to the standard I built my own career on, then match them with the founders who'll truly value them.

Successful placements
-
Inbox, diary, travel, the day-to-day. The core of the role done to a standard most people never reach. Everything else is built on this.
-
Build systems that handle the repetitive work so it's done once and never again. The kind of behind-the-scenes setup that makes one assistant look like a whole team.
-
Use AI to draft, research and summarise in minutes, then make it sound human. You'll learn where it saves hours and, just as importantly, where it can't be trusted.
-
Notion, the project tools, the CRMs. Setting up the systems a modern founder actually runs on, so everything has a home and nothing slips.
-
Knowing what someone needs before they say it, and sometimes when they won't say it at all. Reading a mood, a room, a silence, and adjusting before anyone notices you have.
-
Anticipation is the whole job. Spotting the problem before it lands and handling it before they've noticed is what separates an assistant from an executive one.
-
The one skill that never dates. Trusted with everything, repeats nothing. Personal, financial, and the things that stay in the room.
